Description

NATIONAL PHASE OF PCT/2022/023388, DOCKET 12080 COMBINATION THERAPIES USING PRMT5 INHIBITORS FOR THE TREATMENT OF CANCER BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE Cross-reference to related applications id="p-1" id="p-1" id="p-1" id="p-1"
[0001]This application claims priority from U.S. Provisional Application No. 63/172,643, filed April 8, 2021, and U.S. Provisional Application No. 63/253,029, filed October 6, 2021.
Field of the Disclosure id="p-2" id="p-2" id="p-2" id="p-2"
[0002]This disclosure relates to methods of treating cancer. This disclosure further relates to treating cancer in a subject with compounds that are inhibitors of protein arginine N-methyl transferase 5 (PRMT5), particularly in combination with cyclin-dependent kinase and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors.
Description of Related Art id="p-3" id="p-3" id="p-3" id="p-3"
[0003]PRMT5 is a type II arginine methyltransferase that catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) to an omega-nitrogen of the guanidino function of protein L-arginine residues (omega-monomethylation) and the transfer of a second methyl group to the other omega-nitrogen, yielding symmetric dimethylarginine (sDMA). PRMTforms a complex with methylosome protein 50 (MEP50), which is required for substrate recognition and orientation and is also required for PRMT5-catalyzed histone 2A and histone methyltransferase activity (e.g., see Ho et al. (2013) PLoS ONE 8(2): e57008). id="p-4" id="p-4" id="p-4" id="p-4"
[0004]Homozygous deletions of p16/CDKN2a are prevalent in cancer and these mutations commonly involve the co-deletion of adjacent genes, including the gene encoding methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP). It is estimated that approximately 15% of all human cancers have a homozygous deletion of the MTAP gene (e.g., see Firestone & Schramm (2017) J. Am. Chem Soc. 139(39):13754-13760). id="p-5" id="p-5" id="p-5" id="p-5"
[0005]Cells lacking MTAP activity have elevated levels of the MTAP substrate, methylthioadenosine (MTA), which is a potent inhibitor of PRMT5. Inhibition of PRMTactivity results in reduced methylation activity and increased sensitivity of cellular proliferation to PRMT5 depletion or loss of activity. Hence, the loss of MTAP activity reduces methylation activity of PRMT5 making the cells selectively dependent on PRMTactivity. id="p-6" id="p-6" id="p-6" id="p-6"
[0006]Despite importance of PRMT5 on cell viability and its prevalence in cancers, effective therapies that inhibit PRMT5 have been elusive. Thus, there remains a need to develop new PRMT5 inhibitor therapies to treat wide range of cancers.

[0160]Combination therapy, in defining use of PRMT5 inhibitor and the CDK4/6 inhibitor of the present disclosure, is intended to embrace administration of each agent in a sequential manner in a regimen that will provide beneficial effects of the drug combination (e.g., the PRMT5 inhibitor and the CDK4/6 inhibitor of the disclosure can be formulated as separate compositions that are given sequentially), and is intended as well to embrace co-administration of these agents in a substantially simultaneous manner, such as in a single dosage form having a fixed ratio of these active agents or in multiple or a separate dosage forms for each agent. The disclosure is not limited in the sequence of administration: the PRMT5 inhibitor of the disclosure may be administered either prior to or after (i.e., sequentially), or at the same time (i.e., simultaneously) as administration of the CDK4/inhibitor of the disclosure. id="p-161" id="p-161" id="p-161" id="p-161"

[0162]The methods of disclosure are also useful as a first-line maintenance or a second-line treatment. Thus, in certain embodiments of the methods of the disclosure, the subject has previously completed another first-line of therapy. For example, the methods of the disclosure, in certain embodiments, may provide a delay in progression and relapse of cancer in subjects that have previously completed another first-line chemotherapy. For example, in certain embodiments, the subject has previously completed a platinum- and/or taxane-based chemotherapy (e.g., carboplatin, cisplatin, oxaliplatin, paclitaxel, docetaxel, and the like). In certain embodiments of the methods of the disclosure, the subject has previously completed another first-line chemotherapy and is in partial response to such chemotherapy.

[0185]The methods of the disclosure are illustrated further by the following examples, which is not to be construed as limiting the disclosure in scope or spirit to the specific procedures and compounds described in them.
Study Design: id="p-186" id="p-186" id="p-186" id="p-186"
[0186]The PRMT5 inhibitors of the disclosure demonstrate selective activity in MTAP-deleted cancers by binding to and further inhibiting PRMT5 when bound to the intracellular metabolite MTA. As noted above, MTAP is an enzyme in the methionine salvage pathway and its deletion in cancer cells leads to the accumulation of MTA in these cells. PRMT5 is an essential enzyme required for cell viability and, as such, the PRMT5 inhibitors of the disclosure represent a novel approach to selectively treat MTAP-deleted cancers. id="p-187" id="p-187" id="p-187" id="p-187"
[0187]A single mutation will likely not cause cancer—most often, it is multiple mutations that are responsible for developing cancer. The inventors found the treatment of certain cancers with PRMT5 inhibitors improved with the use of combination therapies. Particularly, the inventors surprisingly found that a combination therapy of PRMT5 inhibitor and CDK4/inhibitor provides greater antitumor activity compared to either inhibitor alone.
Study Procedure: id="p-188" id="p-188" id="p-188" id="p-188"
[0188]Immunodeficient female nu/nu mice were implanted with 5x10 LU99 lung cancer cells in 50% Matrigel. Tumors were measured using calipers until they reached approximately 150 – 200 mm. Animals were randomized to receive A) vehicle (0.5% methylcellulose (4000 cps) / 0.2% Tween80 in water), B) a PRMT5 inhibitor, C) CDK4/inhibitor, or D) the PRMT5 inhibitor and CDK4/6 inhibitor, all administered orally (PO) for days. Tumor volume was measured twice a week (n=5 / treatment group). Average tumor volume and standard error of the mean was calculated and plotted at each study day in GraphPad.

[0190]The CDK4/6 inhibitor used in this example was palbociclib administered at 130 mg/kg once a day (QD).
